Gameboy Advance Games

Nintendo upgraded the Game Boy Advance in early 2003, giving it a rechargeable lithium ion battery, an internal front-light that can be turned on or off, as well as a folding case approximately half the original size. For improved playability, the Game Boy Advance SP came with a new and much brighter LCD screen. It also along with the relase of many interesting Gameboy Games such like Pokemon, Golden Sun, Final Fantasy, etc. GBA was designed to address some common complaints with the original Game Boy Advance which was criticized for being very uncomfortable.

As the release of the Game Boy Micro, around the same time Nintendo released a new backlit version of the Gameboy Advanced SP in North America, which commonly referred to as the “GBA SP+“. The switch that controls the light now toggles between “normal” and “bright,” an intense brightness level similar to an LCD television set.

Nintendo released a second redesign of the Game Boy Advance in September 2005. This model is much similar in style to the original Game Boy Advance’s horizontal orientation, but is much sleeker and smaller. The Game Boy micro also allows the user an ability to switch between several colored faceplates to allow customization, a feature which Nintendo advertised heavily around the Game Boy micro’s launch. Nintendo also hoped that this “fashion” feature will help target audiences outside of typical video game players, much like its new Wii. However, Game Boy micro is unable to support Game Boy Games and Game Boy Color titles, unlike the previous Game Boy Advance models.
